Last week, our Polka Young Voices and GRADS came to see the R&D of our upcoming suffragette and protest themed show: Rebel, Rebel!

Young Voices (aged 8-12) and GRADs (aged 12+) are part of our Ambassadors Scheme and are a crucial part of feeding back on new Polka productions in development, to let us know what works (what doesn’t work!), and what they’d like to see end up on stage. They also get to review the shows afterwards!
